Not only is it a fun vintage hop, but please return on Friday to link up your own spring and Easter posts.

If you are 'bunny hopping' (wink) over from Laura's at

Decor to Adore then I know that you have already enjoyed lots of eye candy!

As long as I can remember, I have always loved creating scenes. Yup, long before I had ever heard of the word, 'vignette'.

A mixture of old and new is what I consider a perfect (scene) vignette!

A reproduction architectural piece, a vintage scale, an enamel pan that looks vintage, but isn't, and a few Easter treasures.

Alot of my Easter décor is old, but not yet considered vintage. But add a few old books and it's a 'winner, winner, chicken dinner'!﻿

Or maybe a couple of chippy corbels. These beauties traveled all the way home with me from Charleston, SC.

Although I usually like to include at least three items in my vignettes, at times I like to keep them simple. Such is the case with this vintage laundry basket, olive bucket filled with dried hydrangeas from my Limelight tree, an old quilt top, and a simple birds nest.

The found nest with the thrift find hand painted egg are the star of the show. A few dried pink hydrangeas brings out the

pink in the egg.

I am such a silly willy! I like to play with my vignettes as if they were my toys. :)

This watering can was joined by a vintage platter, some garden gloves, and an egg spray.

but then. . .

I bought some potted tulips at Home Depot.

So it found a new place to reside for a few days.

Just simple little things evoke fond memories for me. In the 70's it was very popular to be gifted little planters like this lamb when you had a baby. I wish I had some of my original ones. I scored this one for $2 at the same antique store where I bought the bunny in the first photo. I also remember my kids playing with these lace up cards when they were little.

I have lots of vignettes on my kitchen counters.

They make kitchen chores much more delightful!I recently purchased the toy sink and the fuzzy chick was a souvenir from a trip to Salzburg, Austria years ago.

The basket and both sugar eggs were thrift finds. I added the plastic flower and velvet ribbon to the handle. Two of my girls saw them last week and loved them. They remembered getting one in their baskets as children.

I love layering dishes with little vintage treasures on top.

﻿

This old wicker scale holds spring time baking essentials.

This sunbeam mixer really works, and I use it now and then.

Sometimes vignettes don't turn out to be as fabulous as you imagine them to be in your head. lol!

When I spied this Bo Peep cake carrier at Vain and Vintage in Pocatello, ID I squealed with delight!

This will be awesome for displaying some of my sheep collection, I thought.

It was a bit hard to work with and just wasn't what I hoped it would be. Still, I love seeing all of my little sheep corralled together.

They are grazing in a field of green sugar.

It's hard to get a decent photo in my kitchen window, but I love my kitty teapot and pastel teacups!

﻿

I'll end with my latest vignette using the diorama egg I just made in craft group. If you would like to learn how to make one, go here.

Now don't forget to hop over and see what vintage goodness Angelina from Petit Haus has in store for you.

I'm a mother of 5 married children, I have 10 darling grand children with fun and crazy personalities. They help to keep me young. I love the outdoors and love to garden. Just something about getting my hands into that dirt that I can't explain. Mother Nature has a hold on me! Also love decorating my home and thrifting. I'm crazy for anything rusty, old, or chippy! I enjoy quilting, but have slowed down a lot. Love life and people. They help to fill my cup!

Jann, so many sweet & whimsical Easter vignettes--love them all! That little duck creamer on top of your plates is the cutest! It's a pleasure to be joining you in the blog hop. Have a blessed Easter, Cecilia @ My Thrift Store Addiction

Wow, Jann, you really should be selling, as much as you love putting vignettes together. And what wonderful vignettes and collections! Of course I love your sheep, but that fluffy chicken from Austria and the ones whose heads you touched up - they're adorable! That pale blue enamel bowl - have never seen that color, is it one of the new ones? Pretty!Happy Easter my friend. Love our love of vintage goodness, and sharing it together is my Easter treat!

Jann, it's always a treat to see what you have put together into a charming vignette or crafted with your group of friends. I love vintage holiday items, and have a few Easter pieces that I've picked up at antique shops or markets. This month our antiques group was treated to viewing a great little collection of vintage Easter candy containers and hand blown glass eggs. I need to put together a post on her collection, but just haven't had the time recently. Perhaps I can get something created before Friday.Happy Easter!

See what I was saying? My house has nothing in comparison to all of your wonderful vignettes! I used to make those sugar eggs with my kids! I should get my molds out again! Everything is always so charming and your energy level is out of this world!!!!Love you!!! Have a wonderful Easter!!

Your vignettes are Easter perfect! I loved hearing where in the country some of your treasures came from. I've never seen such cute door stoppers!! Thanks for sharing! Happy Easter! ~ Kristin www.whitearrowshome.com
